Two words. Alexander Skarsgard. I know he isn’t technically from Iceland, but Sweden and Iceland are basically interchangeable in my book (I call it the book of pertinent geographic knowledge). My point is that Iceland and Sweden both have hot European guys, which is a welcome relief from freaky bat-shit artists like Bjork.
Iceland is at the top of my must-visit list mostly because they have all those awesome ads in the subways that make it look like one big steaming Jacuzzi. It is only about 5 hours from NYC and apparently friendly to tourists, since they are spending so much money to try and get our cynical asses there. All these breathtaking images of Iceland just fuel my intense desire to go there, marry a nice Icelandic man that dislikes Bjork as much as I do, and live on top of a glacier.
Anyone care to join me?
